Election Day is tomorrow! Show up and vote for Democrats across the line! We have already seen the GOP is only interested in starving the people of this nation, while our tax dollars are going to marble bathrooms, and Venezuelan dictators. When we vote Dem we all win!

If you have to “ win” by striking down the Voting Rights Act, how fucking weak are you? Seriously, you are telling the American people you know you are fascist losers and the only way to get elected is to take away the voice of the people.

What’s frightening about this agreement is Trump being chairman of the peace committee in the Middle East. I yearn for our hostages to be released, but anyone watching our nation devolve into an abuser of human rights right here, should be concerned about this piece. apple.news/APYzu3C4rQ4W...

Jersey, did you know Trump is targeting our state? Delaying funding for the Hudson Tunnel Project, which is a vital part of the project to double rail capacity between New Jersey and New York City. Stopping these funds, is illegal and completely unacceptable.
